Your Privacy: Terms of use and Disclaimer

Where do I stand on the privacy of my readers?

I understand your privacy is important to you, just as mine is to me.Do to others as you wish them to do to you, comes to mind. Below is a list of the main concerns you may have, if anything is not listed, feel free to contact me directly.

1) Do I collect any personal information about you?

Nope, that's the simple version. By Personal I mean, your name, age, height social security number etc. No website can obtain this type of information from you, unless you give it to them. Occasionally readers do email me, I do save a lot of those emails for future reference. I do not share the email addresses or names contained in those emails with anyone, period.

2) Do I gather and collect IP addresses for some weird reason?

Nope, that's the simple version. The Web Servers for this website are in the USA and I don't keep logs. I do use google analytics; your IP address is not visible though. Analytics does tell me which part of the world /city your ISP is located in.

3) Do I sell or share information about you?

Nope, that's the simple version. The only time I would share the small amount of data that is saved through analytics, is if I was legally obliged to do so. Not planning on going to prison any time soon.

4) Is this website considered safe for children?

Yep, that's the simple version. None of the websites I create, contain anything remotely adult in nature, nor do I link to other websites that may be deemed offensive. At the same time it is worth mentioning I can not be held responsible for what is contained on someone else's website.

5) Advertising and Commissions:

I do participate in various affiliate programs where I earn a small commission from time to time. This website optimumtents.com participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees through advertising and linking to Amazon.com and it's products.

6) What about cookies on the web?

A cookie in the context of the web is a small text file that has a unique string of text, commonly called an identifier. These files cannot get any data from your personal computer, or install viruses on your computer. When you go to a website for the first time, some sites will ask your computer if it can add this small file on to your computer. All browsers will by default only allow a website to access the cookies it has already sent. It cannot access any other files. This website participates in the google adsense program that displays advertisements. Google uses a cookie commonly referred to as the dart cookie, this enables them to better serve you.
You can opt out of the google program by visiting Settings for Google ads

Turning off all cookies will not make browsing the Internet safer. A lot of your favorite websites will suddenly become inaccessible. Not recommended.
